Your post captured my attention. The intense pain, limited range of motion with pain, and numbness with tingling in your fingers are very serious and not at all the normal side effects of receiving an injection.
The injection should have been given in the deltoid muscle of the arm, about two inches below the shoulder joint. Based on your comment that the pharmacist injected the needle higher on my shoulder, I am wondering if she injected the flu vaccine in the joint or hit a nerve.
Anonymous, I suggest you contact your primary care physician.
